Lyrics


1. I AM NO LONGER IN THE SHADOWS

In this land of weirdness I awake
surrounded by nature and warm blue lakes
the descent into all hells has been cancelled
the righteous oniric heavens took over hell

have you ever danced in the greatness of the moonlight
lucid dreaming of everything you fathom at night
have you ever smiled so much it hurt insanely
and you cope on with the pain, so bravely

it all came down to me one night when I tried to sleep
the visions got clearer at every step towards the deep
any sound which would wake me, would be another silence
but the eyes wide opened to all the colours, then silence

reach me, holy doom, grant me the end of it all
for my spirit is tired and these dreams aren't my soul
for my sake, for my legacy, for my wellness, for all decency
for my spirit is tired and these dreams aren't my soul

in this world where everything is meant to make you happy
i feel like the one lonely being who runs from it
how could they all understand the traumas deeply buried
could I even explain them one day, I don't even want to plead

far from the joy, I roam / yet these green grasses I walk
am I not safe even in dreams / why do I always live again my teens
life did this to me, the more so / being used to the low and the low
all these mental problems and well more / and yet I complain about it more

let me run away, let me go back home
let me become clay, let me be with none

inhale, exhale, calm your heart / inhale, exhale, calm your thoughts
breathe in the clean air from your windows, open your eyes : you're not in the shadows

you're not in the shadows anymore, your heart isn't pounding anymore
see and realize you're with us now, witness your contractions leaving now

the powers are yours, the victory is yours, all actions are yours and you are the one

the sanctury of wellness opens now its arms
are we but the perpetrator of our own demise
while I think, my mind reaches an unfelt calm
and I soare through skies I have never seen until now

we are the ones with the solutions in our hands
it is time we take them, and use them

you're not in the shadows anymore, your heart isn't pounding anymore

in this land of weirdness I awake
surrounded by nature and warm blue lakes
